Project user experience

Wizard for adding project container

Scope of the wizard:

Container name (required)

Create team repository (required)

Add team members (required)

Add repositories - projects, web pages (optional)

Current mechanism for adding empty container won't work; it doesn't contain the team member repository as well as a first user, so you won't be able to open such container

Logging to container

While opening project container there should be login dialog. Using system login name wouldn't work well in production.

Some password protection should also available.

Could it replace the login to chat.

Automatic adding users for guests (?)

Not sure of this one.

If we would like to expose an example container at our vserver, having User_A, User_B, ... User_Z might not be a best solution. There might be conflicts - several people would login as User_A for instance.

So a unique temporary guest users could be added, so that they can participate fully in the container - chat, events, etc.

Should the guest account be automatically removed when user logs out?

Adding projects to container by right-click -> add to container; dragging could also be an option

For new we could require that the project is already shared

In future I think the code could identify SCM repository and use its settings to share project first, and then add to container

New features for project scope

Mylar

I liked the Mylar functionality with Corona (expert, etc). Would it be difficult to update it for Mylar provided with Europa?

ECF Shared Editor

Add an action "Start shared editor"; an event with shared editor settings is sent and others get an dialog if they want to join; if yes, session settings from event are taken

Seems to be simple to do :)

Indicator that a resource has a newer version in CVS; or at least information that there was some CVS check in

Showing status of resources in the whole team

show indicators that someone is working on a given file, some removed a file, etc.

probably difficult

problems:

when should the state be cleared?

would require some server-side state caching; otherwise when starting IDE you would always have a clear state, even though someone may be working on resources
